US losing war in Afghanistan,
Pak tribal region: Aslam Baig |
| |
ISLAMABAD: Former Army Chief General (rtd)
Mirza Aslam Baigg says United States has ``almost lost its
war in Afghanistan and Pakistan tribal region and soon will
leave with empty hands.’’ Talking to Iran’s
Irna news agency here, he said it has become ``very difficult
for U.S. to sustain pressure of local armed groups who have
been giving tough time to U.S.-led forces in Afghanistan and
Pakistan tribal area.’’
General Beg contended that a conspiracy is being hatched to
destabilize Pakistan. ``Our own soil is being used against
our country.” Intelligence agencies of US-led coalition
forces in Afghanistan are ``working against interests of Pakistan,
China and Russia,’’ he maintained. ``Now question
is that how Pakistan will look into the matter, there is need
to expose conspiracies of enemies?.’’ He said
what is happening at borders of Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan
is only because of U.S. interference. “U.S. doesn’t
want to see peace in the area.” According to him new
government in Pakistan is trying to take back its control
over tribal area, which is not acceptable to U.S. Innocent
people are being killed in tribal area because of U.S. aggressive
policies. U.S. is also providing training facilities to people
of Jundallah, in Baluchistan so that they could create unrest
in the area and affect Iran-Pak relations.—Agencies |
